Question Statement:
A tractor is purchased for $\text{Rs. }890000$. Its expected useful life is $10\text{ years}$, after which its salvage value is estimated to be $10\%$ of the initial purchase price. Using the straight-line method, the annual depreciation is $\text{Rs. }$ ________ (answer in integer).
Answer Key:
80100
Step-by-Step Solution & Explanation
Using the straight-line depreciation formula:
$\text{Annual Depreciation } D = \frac{P - S}{L}$
Where:
- Initial price $P = \text{Rs. }890000$
- Salvage value $S = 0.10 \times 890000 = \text{Rs. }89000$
- Useful life $L = 10\text{ years}$
$D = \frac{890000 - 89000}{10} = \frac{801000}{10} = \text{Rs. }80100$
